Cross stitched rose hoop

The progress made on my #pixelrose #cross-stitch #hoop. Hopefully it will be finished soon☺️ #aurifil #floss #embroidery #craft

During this Xmas period, we were visiting my husband's family in Italy.
It was the great opportunity for me to enjoy some spare time and do some stitchery.
I used my Pixel rose quilt pattern as guide to create this stitched piece.

Here is the finished piece:

2530

I am not sure if I ever shared the stitched banner I did for my Recollection wall (for the Quilt Market in Houston), as that was the opportunity to get all the beautiful matching Aurifil floss.

This #cross #stitching piece is one that took most of my time ( more than quilt making!) and it was left unfinished , just partly done...but I was able to use all of the gorgeous shades of #aurifil #floss and it made me so happy

Here is the corner of the banner, unfinished (it took so much time to stitch and I had to send it over to US), that was the great excuse to attach the gorgeous wooden Aurifloss spools to it.

The image was previously printed on the cloth, and it gave me a good base for the cross stitching.
Hope that you feel inspired:)

    Your stitchery is so beautiful!Love these roses. Awesome!
    I recently tried my hand on cross-stitch and fell face forward. Hmmm...it does take a lot of time and may I will get time once kids are much older.

    Its always fun to see your work. I am always in aww...beautiful!
